The use of ecologic honey as a sweetener or nutritional-energetic supplement represents the best solution for maintaining the health of the human body. The achievement of this goal requires, besides a proper nutritional education, also the use of specific technological processes that allow the quality and quantity increase of this product. For this purpose, energo-protein supplements have been elaborated, using honey and various types of pollen (colza, sunflower, linden and fruit trees). The use of these supplements during fall and spring led to increases in the number of capped drone brood cells between 80-1660 in autumn, respectively between 678-5914 in summer and of the number of bees that will be to enter the winter with 8-236 individuals, either to make spring picking with 960-10780 individuals. Through this treatment the health of bee families was also influenced, acclaimed both by the average number of dead larvae (variations between 0 and 11 maggots in May), as well as through the average number of Varroa lice (variations between 5 and 13.4 in May, respectively 7.8 to 12.6 in June). Under these conditions, the average production of honey / family / year has been between 27kg for the control batch and 55kg for the experimental batch number 4.
